Catching pests with pheromone traps

for further information see page 48). Trapping

host plants or members of the same species
and feature synthetically manufactured odor-
ous substances to attract them and to, even-

bark beetle (Ips typographus), is approx. 4.2 to 5.5 mm long.
Why use insect traps and pheromones?
Monitor beetle activity to:
• allow a more targeted and timely use of control measures
• obtain information on beetle occurrence and population density
• allow more accurate predictions on population development (generation succession)
Mass-trap pest insects to (possible with suitable traps, e.g. MultiWit®):
• reduce the number of pest insects
• reduce damage
Mass trapping measures do always have to be accompanied by other precautions: Check
standing trees for infestations, remove fallen timber (bark beetle habitat) immediately!

We offer leading and state-of-the-art trapping systems for many insect pests!
– 47 –Pheromones (Attractants) – Interesting facts
PHEROMONES (ATTRACTANTS) – INTERESTING FACTS
Pheromones (attractants) consist of odorous substances characteristic of
certain insects and are designed to attract members of the same species:
Sex pheromones: Aggregation pheromones:
These pheromones are released These pheromones are released by insects to indicate, e.g.,
by females and do only attract the the location of a tree suitable for breeding. Therefore, males
males (e.g. most moth attractants). and females are attracted (e.g. bark beetle attractants).
Besides, kairomones are commonly used. These substances are characteristic
of trees and attract insects looking for host plants.
Depending on the pest species, witasek uses a mixture of
highly pure pheromones and kairomones that ensure excellent catch results!
Pheromone traps & pheromone types:
Various pheromone trap types are available (see page 76). The most commonly used one is the "slit trap". Our MultiWit®
Bark Beetle Slit Trap is a state-of-the-art product innovation for mass trapping pests and suitable for use as a dry and a
wet trap (see page 57).

PHEROMONES FOR SPRUCE BARK BEETLES – INTERESTING FACTS
The most common and most dangerous spruce bark beetle species are the European spruce bark beetle
(Ips typographus) and the six-toothed spruce bark beetle (Pityogenes chalcographus).
In particular, the European spruce bark beetle is the most significant forest pest in many areas. Bark bee-
tles bore into the bark to construct galleries for their brood between bark and wood. Except for the striped
ambrosia beetle (Trypodendron lineatum) that bores into the wood and produces white boring dust. The
sap can no longer circulate in the tree, the tree begins to dry out and eventually dies. European spruce
bark beetles usually infest strong spruces and are mainly responsible for pockets of infestation in mid- or
late summer (groups of trees are successfully attacked and killed, foliage of infested trees turns reddish
throughout the crown and bark begins to flake off). In strong spruces the European spruce bark beetle and
the six-toothed spruce bark beetle often occur together, the six-toothed spruce bark beetle predominantly
attacking the sections with thin bark (crown, branches). Besides, Pityogenes chalcographus rather attacks
younger trees. The company witasek has a year-long experience of developing and improving
bark beetle pheromones.
How to control European and six-toothed spruce bark beetles
• mass trapping with MultiWit® Bark Beetle Slit Trap
• trap wood piles (= wood used as traps)
• trap trees (additionally apply pheromone
to enhance attracting effect)
• Trinet® P – Trap pyramid (see page 53)
Why monitor beetle flight activity with bark beetle traps?
• to determine start of flight period and flight curve
• to assess population pressure
(high catch numbers = greater attention on infestation of standing trees)
• to allow forecasts on development of beetle generations
(How many generations will occur?)
Tips for the installation and use of bark beetle traps:
• trap distances: keep safety distance of at least 10 to 15 metres from trap to
non-infested spruces, install traps 25 to 30 metres apart (see pages 50 to 51)
• installation time: install late March or in April, in any case before start of
flight period in April/May

SENSATIONAL, INNOVATIVE BARK BEETLE CONTROL METHOD!
THE NEW PROTECTION NETTING AGAINST BARK BEETLES
Finally, there is a new netting for the protection from and
control of bark beetles, that is suitable for multiple uses
and that ensures constant catch rates!
What makes this netting so innovative?
This netting is suitable for multiple uses and
contains an insecticide – Bark beetles die
when they come in contact with the netting.
It features an outstanding innovation. A small
amount of the active substance is continuously
available on the surface of the netting. This fea-
ture allows the netting to be effective up to a full
flight period and, furthermore, to remain constantly
effective without gradually losing its effectiveness
as conventional insecticide applications do.
Bark beetles die when they come in contact with
the netting (contact effect, effect occurs imme-
diately after contact and up to 2 hours thereafter,
depending on contact time). Control rates that
remain on a constant level add to the product’s A netting technology against bark beetles suitable for

Product properties at a glance:
• user friendly and environmentally friendly application:
targeted control, no drift (caused by rain or wind) as in conventional insecticide applications
• active substance generally harmless to humans, mammals, birds, etc. (alpha-cypermethrin, the active substance
also used in Fastac® Forst)
• up to 6 months rain-proof and UV stable; if stored in a dry and dark place, the effectiveness of the active sub-
stance will practically remain unchanged. E.g. you can use the netting for a month, store it, use it again for a
month, then winter it as described and use it again for another 4 months!

Trap Salt for wet trapping bark beetles
AntiSmell
with the MultiWit® Trap-Tub
Trap Salt
AntiSmell Trap Salt is a natural, inorganic product that, when used in trapping
systems with catch liquids, prevents the release of pheromones (messenger
substances) deterring other bark beetles and deodorises the smell of decaying
beetles caught in traps.
With one 150 g package you can obtain 700 ml of the salt-water-solution
= one trap-tub filling.
• One filling can suppress the smell of approx. 15,000 to 20,000 bark beetles.
Thus, traps only need to be checked every 4 to 8 weeks, depending on
flight intensity and flight duration (saves time and money).
Disposal: AntiSmell Trap Salt has food quality – therefore the salt or
salt-water-solution can be disposed of with no problem in the household trash.

Our Trap-Tub gives you the choice between several trapping methods!
Wet trapping:
Trapping systems with catch liquids have proven to be most effective for the control of
massive amounts of bark beetles. These methods require the trap-tub to be filled with
water and AntiSmell Trap Salt to achieve constantly high catch results.
Wet trapping:
Beetles are killed immediately The following tips will allow you to increase catch numbers and save time and labour:
in the water-salt-solution: no • No messanger substances: Bark beetles caught die very quickly in the water-salt-
release of pheromones that
solution (AntiSmell Trap Salt, see page 58) in the trap and therefore are no longer
would deter other bark beetles,
no smell of decaying beetles.
able to release messenger substances which could deter other beetles from
approaching the trap. This ensures constantly high catch numbers and reduces the
danger of an infestation of standing trees considerably.
• No smell of decaying beetles: Conventional trapping systems do not suppress the
smell of decaying beetles and thus the pheromones cannot have the desired
attracting effect. This is why it is essential to check and empty dry trapping systems
on a weekly basis. When trapping systems with liquids are used (wet trapping)
the water-salt-solution neutralises the smell of decaying beetles and the attracting
effect of pheromones remains unaffected. As a consequence, catch rates constantly
remain at a high level and traps only need to be checked every 4 to 8 weeks,
depending on flight intensity and flight duration.
For wet trapping:
Plug caps are installed. • Catch liquid concentration: A specially designed gutter featured in the MultiWit®
Trap-Tub leads rainwater out of the trap so that the concentration of the catch liquid
remains effective. When too much water enters the trap, an additional water drain in
the middle of the tub draws off the excess water.
• colour: transparent, allows easy trap checks to determine your catch success
Dry trapping:
Trapping systems without catch liquids are ideally suitable for monitoring bark beetle
populations in their main flight periods. The transparent trap-tub facilitates weekly
checks of traps and catch success, and the beetles caught can be easily counted.
For dry trapping: When the trap-tub is used for dry trapping, plug caps are removed from the drains of

IPSOWIT® FJ (spring)
IPSOWIT® FJ (spring) is for the generation of beetles first swarming in the spring, at
temperatures of 16 to 18 °C, usually from mid-April to the start of May. IPSOWIT® FJ
is characterised as being more attractive for the European spruce bark beetle in the
spring. Increased catch rates can be achieved thanks to the newly-developed
composition.
IPSOWIT® STANDARD
IPSOWIT® Standard is for all the periods during bark beetles are in flight. If
IPSOWIT® FJ was used for catching the first swarm flight, IPSOWIT® Standard can
be seamlessly deployed afterwards. That means that consistent catching rates can be
guaranteed, even over the summer months. The composition of this bait provides the
usual high level of attraction for the European spruce bark beetles.

– 67 –Pheromones (Attractants) – Useful insects
ThanasiWit® Pheromone to attract ant beetles (Thanasimus sp.):
Pheromone to attract useful insects and to prevent them
from being caught in pheromone traps!
Useful insects are important natural enemies of bark beetle species (e.g. European
spruce bark beetle and six-toothed spruce bark beetle). The ThanasiWit® pheromone
was specifically developed to attract useful insects in spruce forests. The messenger
12,6 cm
substance in ThanasiWit® attracts various ant beetle species (Thanasimus formicarius,
T. femoralis) that have long been known as natural enemies of bark beetles. A series
of tests has been carried out over several years and ThanasiWit® has proven to be very
effective.
Use and application recommendations for ThanasiWit® in spruce forests:
• To attract ant beetles to (cleared) pockets of infestation and to log stacks to reduce
bark beetle population
4 cm
Place ThanasiWit® dispenser sheltered from weather conditions freely in target location, e.g. close to
beetle nests or log stacks (e.g. with ThanasiWit®-Protect, see below). The useful insects attracted can
help prevent bark beetles from infesting healthy trees and reduce the development of a next beetle gene-
ration in log stacks.
• To prevent useful insects from being caught in pheromone traps
Pheromone traps may also attract and catch Thanasimus species. ThanasWit® can specifically be used to
© M.R. Swadzba - Fotolia.com
direct these natural enemies of bark beetles to a different location and, thus, prevent them from being
caught in traps so that they still can act as useful insect in your forest. Freely place ThanasiWit® shelte-
red from weather conditions in target location (recommended installation: 2 to 7 metres into the stand,
i.e. installation in the forest – measured from the edge of the forest).
• effective: approx. 8 to 10 weeks (depending on weather conditions)
• use from start of bark beetle flight period
• Its use near traps, Trinet® P and log stacks has shown best results.
• Not for use in pine forests!

and boosters of other pheromones
These universal attractants include odorous substances that simulate host plants. This is why
they attract conifer pests (HostoWit® Plus) or pests attacking deciduous woods (GLV Plus).
HostoWit® Plus can also be used alone (without another pheromone) and has very
good attracting effects on conifer pests like pissodes weevils and many others.
(Attention: can only be stored for 6 months)
GLV Plus can also be used alone (without another pheromone) and has very good
attracting effects on pests attacking deciduous woods like Asian long-horned beetles
(Anoplophora glabripennis), cock chafers (Melolontha sp.) and many others.
Your advantages by using these products:
• Additional catch of second and third pests that occur in addition to the main pest.

• To boost the attracting effect of other pheromones

CHESTNUT LEAF MINER MOTH – Interesting facts
Chestnut Leaf Miner Moth Trap Sheets reduce infestation
New control method against female
and male moths
After emerging (flight period begins in mid-April approx.)
and depending on the time of the day, chestnut leaf mi-
ner moths use to fly up and down the tree trunks, close to
the bark. Only after some time, they fly to the crown of the
tree and lay their eggs on the top side of the leaves. This is
why our new control system, the Chestnut Leaf Miner Moth
Trap Sheet, was designed to form a double barrier for flying
moths. Tests have clearly shown that the use of our Chestnut
Leaf Miner Moth Trap Sheets reduces the number of moths
considerably and reduces leaf damage caused by chestnut
leaf miner moth infestation. Consequently, less chestnut
leaves turn brown in summer.
Picture taken in October 2010 See picture on the left: Trap sheets were installed on the
three trees in the left side of the picture. These three
still have their leaves whereas the tree in the right
side of the picture has lost most of its leaves.
Flight period: Moth flight begins in mid- or
late april (depending on sea level)
